Cabinet Questions and Answers

Leveling Shims

I have a simple question When you insert shims to level a cabinet, board, etc. do the shims stay in forever or are they only there until the screw/nails are put in? If they stay how do you cover them up or cut them down so they are not visible? If you wont see them again, that is you will cover them with trim etc., leave them in there. If you will see them, take them out once the cabinet is securely screwed in place.

Too bad you had to tear down your old home but I applaud your efforts to make your new one look like it's been there awhile.
